Stoney Samsoe says artists are keystone species
This week’s guest is Stoney Samsoe, executive director and co-founder of Open AIR. Founded in 2019, Open AIR is dedicated to bringing creativity to diverse communities across Montana. Open AIR is perhaps best known for its amazing artist-in-residence program.
In this episode, Stoney describes Open AIR’s purpose as focused on making artists keystone species in communities. And to continue the metaphor, Stoney talks about how she sees artists as crucial in the human ecology of a community.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/anewangle_podcasts/1421/thumbnail.jp

The -ing of Mathematical Modeling
Teaching mathematical modeling is more than assigning problems based on open-ended, real-world scenarios or on reusing time worn techniques on slightly different problems. It’s about guiding students through the process and helping them improve at each stage, from the earliest brainstorming steps all the way through to dissemination. Too often, only a single model is created with no interplay with the real world, leaving little opportunity for enhancement or refinement. Too often, feedback comes only after the project is complete, leaving little opportunity for growth and reflection. How can we structure courses so students engage deeply with each step of the modeling process throughout the course? How do we provide rich problems that not only -can- be refined over several iterations, but provide the opportunity to actually work through those iterations? This talk will offer an interactive look at these questions and more
